transfer tech: Now that the base color was down, it was time to start adding texture.  I decided it needed some transferred print so I tore a page from a book, slapped on some Gel Medium and placed it on the journal.  The key to making this work is giving it a good rub down with a bone folder.

As you know it's Teacher Appreciation Week so I've been sending in little bits of goodness to my son's teachers everyday this week. Thursday was "Stock the teacher's room with school supplies" so you could send in any kind of supply. So I decided to send in altered journals but I did things a little different than I normally do: Instead of covering the journals with scrapbook papers, I thought I'd treat them like canvases and paint them.

- Roll on a thinner layer of paint.
- Choose an image with high contrast.
- Use a light touch when laying down the magazine page.
- Let sit for a few minutes.
- Let paint dry, then add more paint to pick up image.
- Matte medium makes a translucent background.
- Let paper sit until mostly dry, then pull the print.

Fashion and decor magazines with glossy pages have the most consistent results for me.

If you can’t get it work right away, experiment with different magazines, different acrylic paint, etc.

Happy printing!🎨

All artwork – acrylic or otherwise - will benefit from physical protection from knocks and dirt, plus an extra layer of UV-li
